Quizzing with Dhammerigo Vesupucci

If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!

The one and only Dhammerigo Vesupucci is in town. Actually he is passing through town in a voyage full of “touristic discoveries” and some good old fashioned physical exertion thrown in for good measure. Having known Dhammo from the old Shanmugha - Festember - REC(T) - “culturals” days, one was compelled to meet up with the man during his Garden State sourjourn this past week. And it turned out to be a fruitful meetup. (more…)

Thank you

A big thank you to whoever linked to my latest post on UberDesi at the South Asian Journalists forum’s post announcing coverage of the World Cup finals.

I’m flattered, considering the state I was in when I wrote the post at 3 am this morning.

Shankar on Sivaji…

It’s not every day that a “Thalaivar padam” releases in the theaters. In fact, this event seems to happen only once in two or three years and is a celebration of sorts. Sivaji’s release is no exception. So, non-Tamil readers of this blog, please excuse. The others though, please see Sun TV VJ/host Vijay Sarathi’s interview with Shankar.

A breakaway cricket league from Zee?

Is Subhash Chandra trying to do a Packer? Is this what India needs? Let’s wait and watch as more details unfold…

Incidently, another Cricinfo piece by Sambit Bal calls for something similar - A revolution, if you please. Hmm…

The Three Year Itch

Our relationship turned three today. One day I read about you and wished I had met you. Then later on that same day, when I finally got to meet you, it was love at first sight. And you have been with me ever since, through thick and thin. So why am I talking about our love affair like it has soured?

Well, you know our relationship HAS soured. No, it is not you, honey. No, darling, I am not breaking up with you with the the “It’s not you, It’s me!” speech. I am not breaking up with you, period. But something has gone wrong. I am sure.

It is not you and it is surely not me either. It is them. All of them. The whole world. Some of them must be dumb if they cannot figure out that our relationship is unique and one in a billion. They don’t seem to understand that just because there are more like me, they can’t have the same relationship that we have. (more…)
